I was meeting with a sister in Christ about the struggles in her marriage. We had been discussing the role of women. On this occasion, we were talking about submission. She responded, "I'm an educated woman! Why should I submit to him?" Since then I've heard many such comments. But I've never forgotten how saddened I was by her statement and the awareness of how much feminism has infiltrated the church. Many of us, though we want to live godly lives, chafe against some of the Bible's teaching on women, including submission. We're told on the one hand that we are equal to men, yet we are to submit to our husbands and male leaders in the church. So, are submission and equality mutually exclusive?
Perhaps more today than ever before, our nation’s airways, print media, internet, classrooms, political arenas, and even living rooms are filled with diverse and opposing views. There is a clash of ideas ranging from religion to science to right and wrong itself. These aren’t minor differences of opinion. They are, at their heart, worldview issues. Yet, Jesus didn’t pray for us to be taken out of the world or out of these discussions. In fact, understanding what God says about many of these ideas should make us first examine our own ideas and opinions and then be willing to share the truth with others. But how can we do that without getting as angry as many of those with whom we disagree?
